Bacterial motility governs the evolution of antibiotic resistance in spatially heterogeneous environments

2022-10-22

Abstract excerpt

Bacteria evolving in natural and clinical settings experience spatial fluctuations of multiple factors and this heterogeneity is expected to affect bacterial adaptation. Notably, spatial heterogeneity in antibiotic concentrations is believed to accelerate the evolution of antibiotic resistance. However, current literature overlooks the role of cell motility, which is key for bacterial survival and reproduction. He...
